Ublineage. However, the NA genes from the isolated H5N9 viruses have been clustered with human-infecting H7N9 viruses. Notably, these previously reported H5N9 viruses were disseminated in a further branch with H7N9 viruses circulating in waterfowl in North America. Similarly, in evolutionary trees on the six internal genes, the PA, NP, and NS genes on the isolated H5N9 viruses belonged for the H5N1 lineage. The PB1 and PB2 genes of YH1 virus belonged for the H9N2 and H7N9 lineages, respectively, whereas the PB1 and PB2 genes of YH2 virus belonged to the H7N9 lineage, plus the M gene on the isolated H5N9 viruses originated from H9N2 subtype AIV. These data indicated that the isolated H5N9 viruses werejvi.asm.orgJournal of VirologySeptember 2015 Volume 89 NumberN9 in H5N9 AIV from Human-Infecting H7NFIG two Phylogenetic evaluation of hemagglutinin and neuraminidase on the isolated H5N9 viruses. The HA genes of YH1 and YH2 are distributed in clade two.3.two.1 of HPAIV H5N1 virus. Those LPAIV H5N9 viruses are clustered in a further branch (highlighted in orange). The gap inside the branch indicates that there’s no close partnership among the two sublineages. The NA genes of YH1 and YH2 are clustered with human-infecting H7N9 viruses (highlighted in blue). Previously reported H5N9 viruses are marked in blue and disseminated in one more branch with H7N9 viruses of waterfowl origin (highlighted in orange).September 2015 Volume 89 NumberJournal of Virologyjvi.asm.orgYu et al.FIG 3 Phylogenetic evolution of six internal genes with the isolated H5N9 viruses.

This motif is characteristic of HPAIV. Even so, it differed in the PQRETR/GL motif absent in A/Turkey/Ontario/7732/1966 (H5N9) (22). These observations recommended that the newly isolated H5N9 viruses originated in the hugely pathogenic H5N1 virus circulating primarily in southeastern Asia. Analysis of the receptor-binding web site revealed the traits with the avian-like receptor present at the 210-amino-acid loop of HA protein on the newly isolated YH1 virus (23). The neuraminidase stalk deletion (amino acids 69 to 73) was detected in the YH1 virus but not in the seashore bird H5N9 viruses (Table two). Interestingly, the M2 and PB1 proteins of the YH1 virus and A/Hangzhou/1/2013 (H7N9) exhibited an S31N mutation, which confers resistance towards the antiviral drug adamantane (24, 25), and an I368V substitution, which renders H5 subtype virus transmis-sible in ferrets (7). However, the mutations/substitutions involved in drug resistance and transmission to mammals weren’t observed inside the NA and PB2 proteins of YH1 virus (Table 2). A canonical avian PDZ ligand motif ESEV in the NS1 protein enables YH1 to interact with cellular proteins, interfere with cellular signaling, and defeat host defense (26, 27). These data suggest that the newly isolated H5N9 viruses possess a special characteristic.
